Arlecino [84]3 years ago

<span>The avian heart has evolved into a large and powerful organ with rapid muscular contractions. Generally the smaller the species the larger the relative heart size. Generally birds have hearts larger and ones that beat faster than mammals. The human heart weight amounts to .42 percent of body weight and the pulse rate at rest averages 72 beats per minute. The House Sparrow's heart constitutes 1.68 percent of the body weight and the pulse rate at rest averages 460 beats per minute. In the Ruby-throated Hummingbird these figures rise to 2.37 percent and a pulse rate of 615.</span>

For any given gene, what ultimately determines which dna strand serves as the template strand?
vivado [14]
The answer is the base sequence of gene's promoter.

DNA is a two-stranded helix. One strand is called a template strand, the other one is called a coding strand. The template strand is copied into mRNA, and the coding strand is complementary to the template strand. RNA polymerase, an enzyme responsible for transcription, has to recognize the right strand before transcription begins. So, it recognizes one or more short sequences on the coding strand. This is the base sequence of gene's promoter. Thus, the complementary strand is the template strand.
